Based on this chapter, what are the qualities that define a true devotee of Sai Baba?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 49

Chapter 49 clearly distinguishes the qualities of a true devotee from those who are not. The most crucial characteristic of a genuine devotee is a complete lack of ego. The text explicitly states, 'The one who is completely devoid of ego truly possesses "Devotee-hood."' Conversely, the chapter criticizes those who possess 'the arrogance of knowledge and the pride of superiority' or are an 'abode of hypocrisy,' suggesting these traits are incompatible with true devotion. As described in Chapter 49, true wealth for a devotee is not worldly status but rather a deep 'love for the Guru's feet' and a sincere desire for the company of saints, which can only be cultivated by shedding one's pride.
